The UK's #1 source of anecdotal kettle/teapot reviews

Either an alarm clock or a deep fat fryer

Or an ice cream maker, or a mini hotel room safe, or a really mini fridge, or just an electronic box.



No, wait! A DAB radio. Bet it's a DAB radio. No, hang on. It would have a bigger screen for the playlist data. It's an alarm clock then.

THE PRESS RELEASE WAS IN KOREAN AND CAME OUT WRONG SO WE'LL NEVER KNOW:

쿠쿠, 부방, 웅진이 장악한 한국밥솥시장에 Toshiba(도시바) 도전장 내!!
[ 곽민정 2005-10-26 ]
[AVING-KOREA] 도시바코리아(대표 차인덕)는 ‘원적외선세라믹 다이아몬드티탄코팅’ 방식을 적용한 밥솥(모델명 SD-5GSK)을 내달 10일 한국시장에 선보인다고 밝혔다.

‘원적외선세라믹 다이아몬드티탄코팅’은 알루미늄 세라믹코팅 위에 먼저 불소언더코팅을 하고 그 위에 다시 다이아몬드티탄코팅을 한 후 25,000도로 굽는 제조방식이다. 도시바의 코팅기술이 세계최고인 이유가 바로 제조방식이 다르기 때문이라는 게 회사측의 설명이다.

이 제품은 통가열방식임에도 불구하고 쌀의 중심부까지 수분을 통과시키는 밥솥 기술을 적용, ‘IH’밥솥 수준의 밥맛을 내며 밥의 단맛을 극대화시켜 준다고 회사 관계자는 덧붙였다.

한편 쿠쿠, 부방, 웅진 등 밥솥의 강자가 포진하고 있는 한국시장에서 어떻게 도시바 밥솥을 부각시킬 것이냐는 질문에 대해 도시바코리아 관계자는 “한국제품과 경쟁하기보다는 소량, 고가전략으로 차별화된 판매전략을 준비 중이며 향후 계속 새로운 모델을 선보일 계획”이라고 밝혔다.

가격 159,000원, 색상은 메탈실버와 화이트 두 종류이다.

There's nobody holding it. What a tragic marketing error.

Maybe no one's holding it because it's a HUGE chest freezer? There's no sense of scale!

I can confirm that this is one of the "baddie" robots (not Windsor Davies' lads, the other ones) off of the forthcoming "Terrahawks: The Next Generation".

Amatures!

Yeah, it's probably a rice cooker. Don't even have the hangol fonts installed here (as if that'd fucking help).

Firefox at home displays the correct "foreign symbols" correctly. Not that it helps.

It's a kennel with a timer so that dinner's ready as soon as you get home from karaoke.

It's a bread maker. It makes Korean bread, which is nice.

its a aluminium-ceramic diamond-titanium coated pressure rice cooker from toshiba. the coating is heated to 25000 degrees during production to make it durable. while cooking, the water vapour penetrates into the center of the rice grain, offering a rich, wholesome taste.
its price will be about 100 quid, and caomes in white and metal-silver.
btw i'm korean

I'd have to say it's a rice cooker too. It's definatly a food preperation device of some kind, and the koreans bloody love their rice!

Haven't they got saucepans?

Here's an idea for another comedy blog I could do! A pretend Japanese or Korean site that reviews UK items like they're really mad and interesting.

Like imported "saucepans" and "tin openers" and suchlike.

I might actually do that.
